History
Erected during mission days from 1792 to 1805, the Ortega-Vigare Adobe is the second oldest adobe in this region. Originally L-shaped, it is now only half its original size. In 1859 it became the property of Don Jean Vigare. In the early 1860s it became San Gabriel's first bakery and was separated from the mission's lime orchard by a high cactus wall.
